Beginning Google Maps Mashups

The question is no longer just, "Can I put a Google Map on my website?" Instead, there's now sufficient maturity in the field that the question should be, "How can I put the best possible Google map on my site?" There are many ways to answer that question, involving considerations of good web design techniques, usability, coding best practices, and standards compliance. One of the major goals for this book is to put those kinds of answers in your hands, in ways that you can immediately use.
